Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Worktop repair in Malham, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and people most often call us about scorch marks from pans and chipped corners.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Malham. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
